Job Description
The Manufacturing Engineer designs, optimizes, and troubleshoots precision machining processes. This role bridges the gap between design engineering and the shop floor—utilizing CAM programming, tooling design, and data-driven continuous improvement to maximize throughput, reduce cycle times, and ensure part quality.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
Process Optimization: Establish and optimize CNC machining parameters (speeds, feeds, tool paths) to minimize cycle times and scrap.
Programming & CAD/CAM: Create, edit, and post G-code/M-code using CAM software for multi-axis milling and turning centers.
Fixture & Tooling Design: Design custom fixtures, jigs, and specialized work-holding solutions using 3D CAD modeling.
Continuous Improvement: Lead setup reduction (SMED), cycle time optimization, and root-cause analysis on manufacturing bottlenecks.
